I've recently got onto a University course which requires the knowledge of the 3 different languages and I have never previously coded before and I am looking for advice on the best way to code.Any help would be appreciated .
Posted

I've always found the best way to learn a language is to try to write some very small applications and get those working first, even something as simple as a "Hello World" example will help with the basics of compiling and probably debugging if you get an error.

Also, you could buy some books and type in the example applications from those too if you can't think of an example yourself.

1. From day one, cultivate a good programming practice which you can find a lot of good advice on the web;
2. Do not just read, do a lot of hands-on and experiments;
3. Never afraid of making mistakes, because mistakes help you learn correctly;
4. Always be ready to learn from others, as I believe no one knows everything.
5. When you are confident enough, embark on some serious projects.
6. if you encounter problems, always consult google first, all else fail, visit Code Project.
7. Last but not least, when you are ready, help to answer question at Code Project broadens your knowledge and skills.

It takes time to learn new stuff, but the effort will pay off. Remember that Rome was not built in one day.

Happy learning.

Go to youtube.com, there are tutorials that start at the very beginning.
Write the programs right along with the videos. You gotta do it, to remember it.
